Oak,
One way to modify the "theme" applied to a published
presentation is to massage the vconfig.xml document.
It can be found in the
data directory of a published ppt deck. Open vconfig.xml in
Notepad, for example, and what you're looking for is found at the
top of the document. Specifically, look for the <colors> node
in the xml and you should see 6 tags related to the interface
colors, which are all identified by the <uicolor> tag. The
block of information should look similar to this:
<uicolor name="primary" value="0x######"/>
<uicolor name="glow" value="0x######"/>
<uicolor name="text" value="0x######"/>
<uicolor name="light" value="0x######"/>
<uicolor name="shadow" value="0x######"/>
<uicolor name="background" value="0x######"/>
Couple of things:
1. the # symbol that I included here references hexadecimal
color code typically used in HTML, XML , etc. You
do not want to eliminate or change the
0 that precedes the x as in 0x#######, or color changes that
you make here will end up with less than desirable results.
2. regarding the "name" attributes:
Primary controls the way that the main panels in Breeze are
displayed. This references the Notes, Outline and Playback/Nav area
of the Breeze content interface.
Glow does what it says: it creates the outer glow on
clickable elements such as the play/pause button, paperclip icon,
etc.
Text also does what it says: allows you to change the color
of your text of the Breeze panels.
Light references the highlight bar that is displayed in the
Navigation/Outline and the Thumbnail panels when you're on a
specific "slide" in the presentation.
Background controls the background gradient behind the ppt
slides.
Hope that helps!
Best,
Rob
